The Substitute Bride: Making Memories Of Us (Lois Stone)

Lucas knew about Ayla's decision and he had no plans to stop her.

Sooner or later, she was bound to go back no matter what he might say, and he believed that she would eventually come back to him.

And once Ayla saw how intimate Brian and Anna were, she would understand.

"I'm sorry, Lucas.Have I disappointed you for doing this?"

The two of them were sitting on the sofa in the living room, drinking beer.

"Lala, no matter what decision you make, I will always be there to support you.Perhaps you should really go back to A City and see how things are going.It's been over two years since you left the city.I'm sure that a lot of things have changed ever since."

Lucas kept drinking.

Nobody understood how he felt for Ayla, but he never forced himself on her.He was still a man, and he also had sexual urges.Despite that fact, he had never done anything bad to her.Because he knew that he was all she had, and he never wanted to hurt her.And instead of harming her, he'd rather be with her.

Even if he could only stare at her like this, it was enough for him.

"Thank you so much, Lucas.With you by my side, I've never felt alone.I've never had any relatives since I was a child, and Toby was the only person I could rely on.But even so, he never really belonged to me."

Ayla drank so much that she had lost count of how many glasses she had finished.

At this point, she was probably intoxicated.

The man she once loved deeply was now married to another woman.

And the other man she fell in love with forced her to abort her child and drove her away, and even then, she didn't regret anything.

Perhaps, her love for Toby was based on dependence, and her love for Brian was something much more meaningful.

And so, now that she was going back, she must face two kinds of mentalities, and she had two different feelings.

"Lala, you've drank too much."

Lucas wanted to take the glass away from her, but Ayla refused.

"I'm not drunk."

She seldom drank beer or any type of alcohol.

Whenever she wanted to drink, it only meant that she was in a terrible mood and under a lot of stress.
